What do we call these?

Is there any more or less standard name the hobby assigns to cards like this which Topps issued throughout the 1960s? Super Star Specials or Combos come to mind.

I have always referred to non regular single player cards such as team cards, manager cards, all star cards, record breaker cards, checklists, league leader cards, Turn Back The Clock cards, boyhood photo cards, and multi player cards as special cards.

I always called them group cards.

I am in the "multi player card" group. But I often call them by the player last names too.

So I'll say for example: hey do you know of the Clemente, Aaron and Mays card?

Obligatory card (not mine but I wish it was, might be a forum members? I forget)

The acid trip card.

Topps Heritage has them all referred to as Combo Cards in their subsets.

I always refer to them as their titles.

Combo cards

In the case of that particular card, "underwhelming" comes to mind.

I always referred to them as Leaders cards and Specials for the Team cards, record breakers, checklists, etc.
